Well guys I'm tapping out. I have tried everything I have read each post in this thread. I sent my first unit back and waited a month. I received the second unit that was supposed to have been updated and primed and ready to go for my GT PP premium 2015 mustang. The radio will not work in a premium. If you have a premium car, DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT!!!!

As for sending it back again and dealing with Tim, Phil, or whatever name he calls himself; it is just too much of a pain in the ass to deal with. This has been a complete waist of money and countless hours.

For those of you with basic GTs, you have a great unit to have installed. If you have premium, do not waist you money or time.

I got my second unit yesterday. I was excited to install and start playing with the radio. The wiring and unit was the same I sent back. I took lots of pictures of the first one. I figured they did some programming to make it work. No such luck

Anyone interested in a Gen 2 with all the newest software let me know. I paid 625, plus the return shipping of $69. Ill ship it anywhere in the US for $550 shipped
Sorry to hear about your pain and anguish. I was on a s550 page on fb the other day, and I guy posted about a tesla radio that will work with the premium package. IT's over at phoenix android radios page (https://phoenixandroidradios.com/collections/tesla-style-vertical-screen/Make_Ford). They say they send out two sets of cables now for those with the premium package. Is this BS? Also they have two versions: a 1gb and a 2gb version (559 for the 1gb, 589 for the 2). Can you or anyone else verify if this unit is worth it, or are they just blowing smoke???

Thanks!

Maybe Y'all could contact someone on the forum that ordered his unit from phoenixandroidradios and make the member contact them saying that he didn't have sounds and after a few weeks of figuring out why he didn't have sound coming out of the car it was because he forgot to mention his car was a premium and need the harness. Then arrange with that member to get your premium harness... (Just an idea):shrug:

Hey, does anyone happen to have any pictures of the CANBUS box that came on the Gen1 unit? Preferably with a sticker on it or anything? I'm trying to get something done that will get it working for Premium cars. I already have these pics, but they don't tell me enough info.



If you have any other pictures, inside or out, email them to me, patrickjhenninger at gmail.com

Even the opposite side of the circuit board could be helpful, thanks man.

...because your time is more valuable than everyone else's?

Remove the unit, check the cable connections, reseat them.

No need for a smart ass comment. Did I ask anyone to read it for me? You knew the answer to my question without me reading 200+ pages. If no one would know then obviously I would read it.
